Is Rory Stewart twice the height of the other candidates, or has he brought his own chair?

I've got no time at all for the vast majority of Tories as they always prove them to be self-serving hypocrites who rarely improve life for ordinary people. Having watched that debate, seems to me that Rory Stewart is the least disingenuous and might actually offer policies that appeal to the majority rather than to the niche band of elderly swivel-eyed loons and/or non-dom billionaries that the others instinctively gravitate towards. For that reason, he has no chance. |

It was quite amusing from the responses by the candidates to each of the questions from the general public that they tried to somehow crowbar in their personal experiences to make them 'down to earth' and empathise with these people.
i.e 'I have adopted 100 children and have really been badly affected by cuts etc'. Gove 'I completely understand, I was an orphan until I was 4 months'
From a muslim gentleman who was concerned about islamaphobia. Boris 'My grandfather was a muslim'
I found it a bit cringy about how they were trying to make themselves seem somewhat a bit more 'normal'

Shittest edition of Blind Date ever! BTW Has anyone noticed that we will shortly have leaders whose names are slang terms for farting and the mans appendage, its almost like someone who thought up these terms in historical times had a time machine! |

I honestly don't know what the point of that party is any more. They're anti-business and anti-union/UK. Why do they even still exist? It's beyond bizarre.
The point of the Tory party is the same as it ever was... to protect the privileges of a narrow section of society. |

But very well argued. Should be made compulsory reading for both Leavers and Remainers, be nice to inject some reality into the fantasy-based debates currently taking place. |

Antisemitism is hostility to, prejudice, or discrimination against Jews. A person who holds such positions is called an antisemite. Antisemitism is generally considered to be a form of racism. |
